"An ICY patch and a DISTANT stare..."
Terry’ Davis
US ARMY DAV (Secret Clearance: Previously held TS Clearance/SCI at the Pentagon) "Huntsville, Alabama Is My Hometown."
"I just WITNESSED a PERSON in a PARKING spot, put there CAR in DRIVE, go FORWARD and get STUCK! So NOW they are SPINNING, and I hear their car wheels whining. So I offer to HELP them GET their car out, (it's ICE and snow on the ground RIGHT). being that I am still NOT 100% after my own fall on Wednesday of last week. There is NO way I am pushing or challenging this ICE. I ask her; "May I? So I get into the drive's seat, R-D-R-Drive, and rock the car, turning the wheels! After finally GETTING the car from BEING STUCK! The person SAYS; "I don't KNOW what happened? I replied smiling; "Oh, you went FORWARD instead of backing out of the PARKING space, it happens. You also have front wheel DRIVE, and your front wheels are on ice. The person responded; "I didn't GO FORWARD, what are you TALKING about!!! I said; "Sister, you put your CAR in DRIVE; the car went FORWARD over the SHEET of ice in front of your car. She repiled; "I don't KNOW what you are TALKING about!!!! I didn't DRIVE my car FORWARD. So she rolls up the WINDOW and pulls off." T. Davis

9 年SMDH...Remember you're in Chicago, Terry' Davis. Lot's of peculiarities in human interaction in our city. A simple "Thank you, I'll remember that next time" would have been an appropriate response, but there exist some individuals who are at constant odds within their own minds and spirit and must initiate a battle whenever and wherever possible. LinkedIn is a playground for such mindset. Continue to uplift, keep it positive, and don't let it fall off on you in 2016! Lol
